Hand poured Candles, Diffusers & Perfumes made in England, leaving their scent around the world.

Formulated and designed by Lex Lane and derived from her passion for perfumery and the enduring history of the candle, Amor et Psyché sells itself by simply being traditional artisan quality. As every candle is hand poured, each one is unique.

The first flame of Amor et Psyché took light in Paris while exploring my other passions perfumery and books. Here I found and fell in love within a romantic and enlightened world. From the streets of St. Germain to the sanctuary of the Shakespeare and Company bookshop, I felt my ideas coming together. The beauty of a candle is within its scents and its science, I travelled to Grasse and Paris to learn all I could about traditional and modern perfumery. No Amor et Psyché candle is the same.

The Perfumes

Amor et Psyché perfumes are made using the very best perfumers ingredients. Cupid is our first perfume and made in Grasse to Lex's formula and sent to London. Mirabelle is mixed and bottled in our London studio. 10ml samples are available.
We can produce each of our candle and diffuser scents as an eau de parfum. Please contact us to inquire about this service.

The Reed Diffusers

Amor et Psyché hand poured reed diffusers are a gentle mix of the finest perfumers essential oils and man-made scent. Created by chandler Lex Lane, each 200ml diffuser is supplied with ten reed sticks of the highest quality. For best results we recommend you use all ten reeds and turn them after the initial first hour. Repeat this process once a week for best results.

We love Amor et Psyché, the candles are lovingly made and hand poured by Lex to the highest quality and her scents are amazing. Everyone who comes into our shop wants to know what we are burning, we all have our favourites’ and mine tends to change daily to whatever candle is being burnt that day.

Lex is such a delight to work with and always brightens our day with her visits to check that everything is going well with her products as she cares so much about her candles.

From beginning to end our experience working with Lex and her nose was exhilarating, joyous and ultimately very productive. We are totally thrilled with our candles and have had an incredible reaction from our customers.

So looking forward to inventing our new flavours!

I have been working with Lex Lane, founder of Amor et Psyché, to create a bespoke candle for The Dorchester and must say what an absolute joy it has been to work with her.

Lex is extremely talented, she put her whole heart and soul into making this project a success. Her attention to detail and quality of workmanship is of an exceptional standard which clearly shows in the finished product.

I look forward to working with her on future projects and highly recommend Amor et Psyché as a brand who delivers exactly what the client requires.
Thank you Lex

I have worked with Lex for many years and a more delightful, funny, hard-working and talented personality would be very hard to find. Right from the very start she treated me as a friend - and we have indeed become very close.

Lex gave the same warm affection to my partner Kate from the moment she met her. Kate and I know that Lex is a friend for life.

Our working relationship has benefited enormously from this approach. Lex is incredibly good at what she does, her products are simply first class - it is a pure pleasure to work with her.

I've enjoyed working with Lex for a number of years, her eye for detail and drive for perfection has helped to create a wonderful product. I look forward to working with Amor et Psyché in the future.

I am a scented candle and diffuser fiend although I do prefer diffusers because other than turning the reeds upside down to release new fragrance once a week... They are easy! I have just discovered this amazing company Amor et Psyché and I can not rave enough about them. My home smells divine and the scents are so natural and uplifting it is a pleasure doing chores and moving around the house!

I have even used one of the diffuser packaging box bases as a make-up brush holder, way too pretty and well made to simply discard... Happy girl on a windy dull day.

Mirabelle has arrived. What a glorious fragrance, you said I'd like it and you're correct. Congratulations on creating something special, a sublime fragrance.

I'm also pleased it's perfume created and made in the UK.

This is such a lovely product, one that not only works - which to be honest there are plenty of scented candles and diffusers on the market that are so weak they are a complete waste of money, believe me I've tried many - whereas Amor et Psyché products are well worth the outlay because they simply smell divine. I particularly like Frankincense and Myrrh at this time of year.
